The model will be built on the same chassis that the flagship sedan 7-Series. Scheduled for market launch in July, the coupe and drop top sisters of the 1 Series feature revised front-end styling, a refreshed interior and more equipment. Tiny European cars scrambled out of the way as our ringed LED headlights bore down behind them. A larger kidney grille gives the front end a wider look, and the outer air intakes are also bigger. In the United States, the 2 Series is available as the 230i with a turbocharged inline-four making 248 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque and a M240i that turns out 335 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. One new leather upholstery variant and two new cloth upholstery variants are available throughout the lineup as options. When the first 6-Series was discontinued in 1989, it was replaced by the ultra high-tech, wedge-shaped 8-Series.
